Děčín Chateau

Discover the colourful past of Baroque/neo-Classical Děčín Chateau, which rises above the confluence of the Elbe and Ploučnice rivers.

One of the most noteworthy historical sights in North Bohemia was a military fort and residence of prominent aristocratic families; it was even visited by a series of European rulers and artists, and Fréderic Chopin composed his Děčínský Waltz here. Extensive renovation means you now have the chance to see the chateau in all its former glory. You can stroll in the courtyard, see the Baroque stables and chateau cellars, and let yourself be wooed by the Rose Garden. You can also enjoy the atmosphere of the regular chateau evenings with music. So come on down! We’re open all year round

Děčín

Come and visit this North Bohemian city that unfolds in the wide basin of both banks of the Elbe River. On one side, you can see the substantial chateau towering above you, on the other, the cliff called Pastýřská stěna (Shepherd's Wall). The Elbe River dissects the city from south to north, and just outside it, the river begins to meander its way through the fairy tale landscape of the Elbe sandstone formations with massive sandstone walls and deep forests. Nearby, you will also find lookout towers with stunning views of the countryside.
